Is it just me?

Maybe it's me...

Is it just me?

Maybe I am just the one that would rather have one single friend that I can trust with every single secret, than a thousands friends who just run their mouths about everything and about me.

I'd rather have the one friend who genuinely loves me for who I am, than many fake friends who's love is just fake.

I just rather have that one friend who will show up when things are hard for me, than fake friends who flake on me when times get tough.

I'd rather have one friend who will scream and clap and celebrate my successes, than fake friends that are rolling their eyes as I succeed in life, as they secretly hope I fail.

I just rather have that one friend who accepts me as I am, than fake friends who I have to impress every time I am around them or to even just keep them around.

I'd rather have that one friend who forgives me when I slip up in life just because they know my heart if pure, than fake ones who expect nothing but perfection.

I'd rather have that one friend who stays and holds me close when I need it, than fake friends who will flake and take me in when something or someone better comes along.

I would rather have that one friend who lifts me up, than fake ones trying to tear me down daily.

I would rather have that one friend who sees me for me, than fake ones who look away or even right through me.

I'd rather have that one friend who genuinely cares about my best interest in things, than someone who pretends like they do and only cares about what I do for them.

I would rather have one friend who is always there right beside me through the bad times and the good, not the fake ones that run when the bad things hit and can't see the good things that are happening right before you.

I'd rather have that one friend who keeps their word to me and tells me the truth and never says "I love you" in vain, than fake friends who will say any pretty lie they can come up with and that goes back on their promises.

That one true friend is better than millions of fake friends.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
